It might be worth clarifying what "latest" means for both the "x" and "x.y" forms. For example, should "http://docs.python.org/3/" today link to the released 3.3.0 version, the in-progress 3.3.1 version, or the in-progress 3.4.0? For the "x" form, I think we mean the second because that is what it points to today, i.e. the in-development version of the highest released minor version of the major version "x". There's a slight mismatch with how we're doing it today because "http://docs.python.org/3/" shows 3.3.0 in the title even though it's the in-progress 3.3.1. The title should perhaps reflect that it's post 3.3.0 (and similarly for the 2.7 and 3.2 pages). --Chris _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
